Programs & Examples On #Uidevice

UIDevice uniqueIdentifier deprecated - What to do now?

Based on the link proposed by @moonlight, i did several tests and it seems to be the best solution. As @DarkDust says the method goes to check en0 which is always available.
There are 2 options:
uniqueDeviceIdentifier (MD5 of MAC+CFBundleIdentifier)
and uniqueGlobalDeviceIdentifier(MD5 of the MAC), these always returns the same values.
Below the tests i've done (with the real device):

#import "UIDevice+IdentifierAddition.h"

NSLog(@"%@",[[UIDevice currentDevice] uniqueDeviceIdentifier]);
NSLog(@"%@",[[UIDevice currentDevice] uniqueGlobalDeviceIdentifier]);

Hope it's useful.

EDIT:
As others pointed out, this solution in iOS 7 is no longer useful since uniqueIdentifier is no longer available and querying for MAC address now returns always 02:00:00:00:00:00

How to calculate difference in hours (decimal) between two dates in SQL Server?

DATEDIFF but note it returns an integer so if you need fractions of hours use something like this:-

CAST(DATEDIFF(ss, startDate, endDate) AS decimal(precision, scale)) / 3600

Flutter: Trying to bottom-center an item in a Column, but it keeps left-aligning

What is the difference between Numpy's array() and asarray() functions?

The difference can be demonstrated by this example:

  1. generate a matrix

    >>> A = numpy.matrix(numpy.ones((3,3)))
    >>> A
    matrix([[ 1.,  1.,  1.],
            [ 1.,  1.,  1.],
            [ 1.,  1.,  1.]])
    
  2. use numpy.array to modify A. Doesn't work because you are modifying a copy

    >>> numpy.array(A)[2]=2
    >>> A
    matrix([[ 1.,  1.,  1.],
            [ 1.,  1.,  1.],
            [ 1.,  1.,  1.]])
    
  3. use numpy.asarray to modify A. It worked because you are modifying A itself

    >>> numpy.asarray(A)[2]=2
    >>> A
    matrix([[ 1.,  1.,  1.],
            [ 1.,  1.,  1.],
            [ 2.,  2.,  2.]])
    

Hope this helps!

How to strip HTML tags with jQuery?

This is a example for get the url image, escape the p tag from some item.

Try this:

$('#img').attr('src').split('<p>')[1].split('</p>')[0]

Get value from a string after a special character

Assuming you have your hidden input in a jQuery object $myHidden, you then use JavaScript (not jQuery) to get the part after ?:

var myVal = $myHidden.val ();
var tmp = myVal.substr ( myVal.indexOf ( '?' ) + 1 ); // tmp now contains whatever is after ?

Laravel 5.2 not reading env file

When you fired command php artisan config:cache then it will wipe out all the env variables and env() will give null values, try running following command and boom there your env() again begin to catch all env variable

php artisan config:clear

Iterate Multi-Dimensional Array with Nested Foreach Statement

Here's how to visit each element in a 2-dimensional array. Is this what you were looking for?

for (int i=0;i<array.GetLength(0);i++)
{
    for (int j=0;j<array.GetLength(1);j++)
    {
        int cell = array[i,j];
    }
}

what is trailing whitespace and how can I handle this?

Trailing whitespace is any spaces or tabs after the last non-whitespace character on the line until the newline.

In your posted question, there is one extra space after try:, and there are 12 extra spaces after pass:

>>> post_text = '''\
...             if self.tagname and self.tagname2 in list1:
...                 try: 
...                     question = soup.find("div", "post-text")
...                     title = soup.find("a", "question-hyperlink")
...                     self.list2.append(str(title)+str(question)+url)
...                     current += 1
...                 except AttributeError:
...                     pass            
...             logging.info("%s questions passed, %s questions \
...                 collected" % (count, current))
...             count += 1
...         return self.list2
... '''
>>> for line in post_text.splitlines():
...     if line.rstrip() != line:
...         print(repr(line))
... 
'                try: '
'                    pass            '

See where the strings end? There are spaces before the lines (indentation), but also spaces after.

Use your editor to find the end of the line and backspace. Many modern text editors can also automatically remove trailing whitespace from the end of the line, for example every time you save a file.

Error 405 (Method Not Allowed) Laravel 5

If you're using the resource routes, then in the HTML body of the form, you can use method_field helper like this:

<form>
  {{ csrf_field() }}
  {{ method_field('PUT') }}
  <!-- ... -->
</form>

It will create hidden form input with method type, that is correctly interpereted by Laravel 5.5+.

Since Laravel 5.6 you can use following Blade directives in the templates:

<form>
  @method('put')
  @csrf
  <!-- ... -->
</form>

Hope this might help someone in the future.

SQL search multiple values in same field

Yes, you can use SQL IN operator to search multiple absolute values:

SELECT name FROM products WHERE name IN ( 'Value1', 'Value2', ... );

If you want to use LIKE you will need to use OR instead:

SELECT name FROM products WHERE name LIKE '%Value1' OR name LIKE '%Value2';

Using AND (as you tried) requires ALL conditions to be true, using OR requires at least one to be true.

How to run Nginx within a Docker container without halting?

To expand on Charles Duffy's answer, Nginx uses the daemon off directive to run in the foreground. If it's inconvenient to put this in the configuration file, we can specify it directly on the command line. This makes it easy to run in debug mode (foreground) and directly switch to running in production mode (background) by changing command line args.

To run in foreground:

nginx -g 'daemon off;'

To run in background:

nginx

How to backup Sql Database Programmatically in C#

            SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection();
            SqlCommand sqlcmd = new SqlCommand();
            SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter();
            DataTable dt = new DataTable();

            con.ConnectionString = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["MyConString"].ConnectionString;
            string backupDIR = "~/BackupDB";
            string path = Server.MapPath(backupDIR);

            try
            {
                var databaseName = "MyFirstDatabase";
                con.Open();
                string saveFileName = "HiteshBackup";

Python's equivalent of && (logical-and) in an if-statement

Two comments:

  • Use and and or for logical operations in Python.
  • Use 4 spaces to indent instead of 2. You will thank yourself later because your code will look pretty much the same as everyone else's code. See PEP 8 for more details.

Looking for simple Java in-memory cache

Since this question was originally asked, Google's Guava library now includes a powerful and flexible cache. I would recommend using this.

Retrofit and GET using parameters

AFAIK, {...} can only be used as a path, not inside a query-param. Try this instead:

public interface FooService {    

    @GET("/maps/api/geocode/json?sensor=false")
    void getPositionByZip(@Query("address") String address, Callback<String> cb);
}

If you have an unknown amount of parameters to pass, you can use do something like this:

public interface FooService {    

    @GET("/maps/api/geocode/json")
    @FormUrlEncoded
    void getPositionByZip(@FieldMap Map<String, String> params, Callback<String> cb);
}

Django CSRF check failing with an Ajax POST request

I've just encountered a bit different but similar situation. Not 100% sure if it'd be a resolution to your case, but I resolved the issue for Django 1.3 by setting a POST parameter 'csrfmiddlewaretoken' with the proper cookie value string which is usually returned within the form of your home HTML by Django's template system with '{% csrf_token %}' tag. I did not try on the older Django, just happened and resolved on Django1.3. My problem was that the first request submitted via Ajax from a form was successfully done but the second attempt from the exact same from failed, resulted in 403 state even though the header 'X-CSRFToken' is correctly placed with the CSRF token value as well as in the case of the first attempt. Hope this helps.

Python conversion between coordinates

Thinking about it in general, I would strongly consider hiding coordinate system behind well-designed abstraction. Quoting Uncle Bob and his book:

class Point(object)
    def setCartesian(self, x, y)
    def setPolar(self, rho, theta)
    def getX(self)
    def getY(self)
    def getRho(self)
    def setTheta(self)

With interface like that any user of Point class may choose convenient representation, no explicit conversions will be performed. All this ugly sines, cosines etc. will be hidden in one place. Point class. Only place where you should care which representation is used in computer memory.

Where do I put image files, css, js, etc. in Codeigniter?

I just wanted to add that the problem may be even simpler -

I've been scratching my head for hours with this problem - I have read all the solutions, nothing worked. Then I managed to check the actual file name.

I had "image.jpg.jpg" rather than "image.jpg".

If you use $ ls public/..path to image assets../ you can quickly check the file names.

Sounds stupid but I never thought to look at something so simple as file name given the all the technical advice here.

Check if an excel cell exists on another worksheet in a column - and return the contents of a different column

You can use following formulas.

For Excel 2007 or later:

=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(D3,List!A:C,3,FALSE),"No Match")

For Excel 2003:

=IF(ISERROR(MATCH(D3,List!A:A, 0)), "No Match", VLOOKUP(D3,List!A:C,3,FALSE))

Note, that

  • I'm using List!A:C in VLOOKUP and returns value from column ? 3
  • I'm using 4th argument for VLOOKUP equals to FALSE, in that case VLOOKUP will only find an exact match, and the values in the first column of List!A:C do not need to be sorted (opposite to case when you're using TRUE).

Slicing of a NumPy 2d array, or how do I extract an mxm submatrix from an nxn array (n>m)?

I'm not sure how efficient this is but you can use range() to slice in both axis

 x=np.arange(16).reshape((4,4))
 x[range(1,3), :][:,range(1,3)] 

Add a column with a default value to an existing table in SQL Server

ALTER TABLE MYTABLE ADD MYNEWCOLUMN VARCHAR(200) DEFAULT 'SNUGGLES'

Find the min/max element of an array in JavaScript

Below script worked for me in ndoejs:

 var numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4];
 console.log('Value:: ' + Math.max.apply(null, numbers) ); // 4

How to display HTML tags as plain text

Use htmlentities() to convert characters that would otherwise be displayed as HTML.

C++: variable 'std::ifstream ifs' has initializer but incomplete type

This seems to be answered - #include <fstream>.

The message means :-

incomplete type - the class has not been defined with a full class. The compiler has seen statements such as class ifstream; which allow it to understand that a class exists, but does not know how much memory the class takes up.

The forward declaration allows the compiler to make more sense of :-

void BindInput( ifstream & inputChannel ); 

It understands the class exists, and can send pointers and references through code without being able to create the class, see any data within the class, or call any methods of the class.

The has initializer seems a bit extraneous, but is saying that the incomplete object is being created.

Convert Mongoose docs to json

It worked for me:

Products.find({}).then(a => console.log(a.map(p => p.toJSON())))


also if you want use getters, you should add its option also (on defining schema):

new mongoose.Schema({...}, {toJSON: {getters: true}})

WAMP Server doesn't load localhost

Solution(s) for this, found in the official wampserver.com forums:

SOLUTION #1:

This problem is caused by Windows (7) in combination with any software that also uses port 80 (like Skype or IIS (which is installed on most developer machines)). A video solution can be found here (34.500+ views, damn, this seems to be a big thing ! EDIT: The video now has ~60.000 views ;) )

To make it short: open command line tool, type "netstat -aon" and look for any lines that end of ":80". Note thatPID on the right side. This is the process id of the software which currently usesport 80. Press AltGr + Ctrl + Del to get into the Taskmanager. Switch to the tab where you can see all services currently running, ordered by PID. Search for that PID you just notices and stop that thing (right click). To prevent this in future, you should config the software's port settings (skype can do that).

SOLUTION #2:

left click the wamp icon in the taskbar, go to apache > httpd.conf and edit this file: change "listen to port .... 80" to 8080. Restart. Done !

SOLUTION #3:

Port 80 blocked by "Microsoft Web Deployment Service", simply deinstall this, more info here

By the way, it's not Microsoft's fault, it's a stupid usage of ports by most WAMP stacks.

IMPORTANT: you have to use localhost or 127.0.0.1 now with port 8080, this means 127.0.0.1:8080 or localhost:8080.

Unexpected token }

You have endless loop in place:

function save() {
    var filename = id('filename').value;
    var name = id('name').value;
    var text = id('text').value;
    save(filename, name, text);
}

No idea what you're trying to accomplish with that endless loop but first of all get rid of it and see if things are working.

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot use 'in' operator to search for 'length' in

maybe you forget to add parameter dataType:'json' in your $.ajax

$.ajax({
   type: "POST",
   dataType: "json",
   url: url,
   data: { get_member: id },
   success: function( response ) 
   { 
     //some action here
   },
   error: function( error )
   {
     alert( error );
   }
});

Set opacity of background image without affecting child elements

#footer ul li
     {
       position:relative;
       list-style:none;
     }
    #footer ul li:before
     {
       background-image: url(imagesFolder/bg_demo.png);
       background-repeat:no-repeat;
       content: "";
       top: 5px;
       left: -10px;
       bottom: 0;
       right: 0;
       position: absolute;
       z-index: -1;
       opacity: 0.5;
    }

You can try this code. I think it will be worked. You can visit the demo

Dynamic LINQ OrderBy on IEnumerable<T> / IQueryable<T>

Here's something else I found interesting. If your source is a DataTable, you can use dynamic sorting without using Dynamic Linq

DataTable orders = dataSet.Tables["SalesOrderHeader"];
EnumerableRowCollection<DataRow> query = from order in orders.AsEnumerable()
                                         orderby order.Field<DateTime>("OrderDate")
                                         select order;
DataView view = query.AsDataView();
bindingSource1.DataSource = view;

reference: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb669083.aspx (Using DataSetExtensions)

Here is one more way to do it by converting it to a DataView:

DataTable contacts = dataSet.Tables["Contact"];    
DataView view = contacts.AsDataView();    
view.Sort = "LastName desc, FirstName asc";    
bindingSource1.DataSource = view;
dataGridView1.AutoResizeColumns();

Clone contents of a GitHub repository (without the folder itself)

If the folder is not empty, a slightly modified version of @JohnLittle's answer worked for me:

git init
git remote add origin https://github.com/me/name.git
git pull origin master

As @peter-cordes pointed out, the only difference is using https protocol instead of git, for which you need to have SSH keys configured.

List of phone number country codes

There is a fairly well maintained repo on github that has a CSV (with semicolon delimiters), XML, and JSON source of countries, country codes, and other information.

How to change the font color of a disabled TextBox?

In addition to the answer by @spoon16 and @Cheetah, I always set the tabstop property to False on the textbox to prevent the text from being selected by default.

Alternatively, you can also do something like this:

private void FormFoo_Load(...) {
    txtFoo.Select(0, 0);
}

or

private void FormFoo_Load(...) {
    txtFoo.SelectionLength = 0;
}

A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (Error Number: 233)

To add on top of @Pranav Singh and @Rahul Tripathi answer. After doing all the mentioned by those 2 users, my .net app still wasnt connecting to the database. My solution was.

Open Sql Server Configuration Manager, go to Network configuration of SQL SERVER, click on protocols, right click on TCP/IP and select enabled. I also right clicked on it opened properties, Ip directions, and scrolled to the bottom (IPAII , and there in TCP Port, I did setup a port (1433 is supposed to be default))

String formatting: % vs. .format vs. string literal

AngularJS - Animate ng-view transitions

I'm not sure about a way to do it directly with AngularJS but you could set the display to none for both welcome and login and animate the opacity with an directive once they are loaded.

I would do it some way like so. 2 Directives for fading in the content and fading it out when a link is clicked. The directive for fadeouts could simply animate a element with an unique ID or call a service which broadcasts the fadeout

Template:

<div class="tmplWrapper" onLoadFadeIn>
    <a href="somewhere/else" fadeOut>
</div>

Directives:

angular
  .directive('onLoadFadeIn', ['Fading', function('Fading') {
    return function(scope, element, attrs) {
      $(element).animate(...);
      scope.$on('fading', function() {
    $(element).animate(...);
      });
    }
  }])
  .directive('fadeOut', function() {
    return function(scope, element, attrs) {
      element.bind('fadeOut', function(e) {
    Fading.fadeOut(e.target);
  });
    }
  });

Service:

angular.factory('Fading', function() {
  var news;
  news.setActiveUnit = function() {
    $rootScope.$broadcast('fadeOut');
  };
  return news;
})

I just have put together this code quickly so there may be some bugs :)

How do you add an SDK to Android Studio?

Download your sdk file, go to Android studio: File->New->Import Module

Read input from a JOptionPane.showInputDialog box

Your problem is that, if the user clicks cancel, operationType is null and thus throws a NullPointerException. I would suggest that you move

if (operationType.equalsIgnoreCase("Q")) 

to the beginning of the group of if statements, and then change it to

if(operationType==null||operationType.equalsIgnoreCase("Q")). 

This will make the program exit just as if the user had selected the quit option when the cancel button is pushed.

Then, change all the rest of the ifs to else ifs. This way, once the program sees whether or not the input is null, it doesn't try to call anything else on operationType. This has the added benefit of making it more efficient - once the program sees that the input is one of the options, it won't bother checking it against the rest of them.

How to upgrade Angular CLI project?

Solution that worked for me:

  • Delete node_modules and dist folder
  • (in cmd)>> ng update --all --force
  • (in cmd)>> npm install typescript@">=3.4.0 and <3.5.0" --save-dev --save-exact
  • (in cmd)>> npm install --save core-js
  • Commenting import 'core-js/es7/reflect'; in polyfill.ts
  • (in cmd)>> ng serve

Converting a string to int in Groovy

Use the toInteger() method to convert a String to an Integer, e.g.

int value = "99".toInteger()

An alternative, which avoids using a deprecated method (see below) is

int value = "66" as Integer

If you need to check whether the String can be converted before performing the conversion, use

String number = "66"

if (number.isInteger()) {
  int value = number as Integer
}

Deprecation Update

In recent versions of Groovy one of the toInteger() methods has been deprecated. The following is taken from org.codehaus.groovy.runtime.StringGroovyMethods in Groovy 2.4.4

/**
 * Parse a CharSequence into an Integer
 *
 * @param self a CharSequence
 * @return an Integer
 * @since 1.8.2
 */
public static Integer toInteger(CharSequence self) {
    return Integer.valueOf(self.toString().trim());
}

/**
 * @deprecated Use the CharSequence version
 * @see #toInteger(CharSequence)
 */
@Deprecated
public static Integer toInteger(String self) {
    return toInteger((CharSequence) self);
}

You can force the non-deprecated version of the method to be called using something awful like:

int num = ((CharSequence) "66").toInteger()

Personally, I much prefer:

int num = 66 as Integer

Entity Framework rollback and remove bad migration

You have 2 options:

  • You can take the Down from the bad migration and put it in a new migration (you will also need to make the subsequent changes to the model). This is effectively rolling up to a better version.

    I use this option on things that have gone to multiple environments.

  • The other option is to actually run Update-Database –TargetMigration: TheLastGoodMigration against your deployed database and then delete the migration from your solution. This is kinda the hulk smash alternative and requires this to be performed against any database deployed with the bad version.

    Note: to rescaffold the migration you can use Add-Migration [existingname] -Force. This will however overwrite your existing migration, so be sure to do this only if you have removed the existing migration from the database. This does the same thing as deleting the existing migration file and running add-migration

    I use this option while developing.

What is the best way to determine a session variable is null or empty in C#?

That is pretty much how you do it. However, there is a shorter syntax you can use.

sSession = (string)Session["variable"] ?? "set this";

This is saying if the session variables is null, set sSession to "set this"

Div Scrollbar - Any way to style it?

How to get JSON from webpage into Python script

There's no need to use an extra library to parse the json...

json.loads() returns a dictionary.

So in your case, just do text["someValueKey"]

SQL/mysql - Select distinct/UNIQUE but return all columns?

I would suggest using

SELECT  * from table where field1 in 
(
  select distinct field1 from table
)

this way if you have the same value in field1 across multiple rows, all the records will be returned.

Permission denied error while writing to a file in Python

Make sure that you have write permissions for that directory you were trying to create file by properties

Java ArrayList for integers

Here there are two different concepts that are merged togather in your question.

First : Add Integer array into List. Code is as follows.

List<Integer[]> list = new ArrayList<>();
Integer[] intArray1 = new Integer[] {2, 4};
Integer[] intArray2 = new Integer[] {2, 5};
Integer[] intArray3 = new Integer[] {3, 3};
Collections.addAll(list, intArray1, intArray2, intArray3);

Second : Add integer value in list.

List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<>();
int x = 5
list.add(x);

NGINX to reverse proxy websockets AND enable SSL (wss://)?

for .net core 2.0 Nginx with SSL

location / {
    # redirect all HTTP traffic to localhost:8080
    proxy_pass http://localhost:8080;
    proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
    proxy_set_header Host $host;
    proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

    # WebSocket support
    proxy_http_version 1.1;
    proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
    proxy_set_header Connection $http_connection;
}

This worked for me

Sanitizing user input before adding it to the DOM in Javascript

Since the text that you are escaping will appear in an HTML attribute, you must be sure to escape not only HTML entities but also HTML attributes:

var ESC_MAP = {
    '&': '&amp;',
    '<': '&lt;',
    '>': '&gt;',
    '"': '&quot;',
    "'": '&#39;'
};

function escapeHTML(s, forAttribute) {
    return s.replace(forAttribute ? /[&<>'"]/g : /[&<>]/g, function(c) {
        return ESC_MAP[c];
    });
}

Then, your escaping code becomes var user_id = escapeHTML(id, true).

For more information, see Foolproof HTML escaping in Javascript.

Long Press in JavaScript?

You could set the timeout for that element on mouse down and clear it on mouse up:

$("a").mousedown(function() {
    // set timeout for this element
    var timeout = window.setTimeout(function() { /* … */ }, 1234);
    $(this).mouseup(function() {
        // clear timeout for this element
        window.clearTimeout(timeout);
        // reset mouse up event handler
        $(this).unbind("mouseup");
        return false;
    });
    return false;
});

With this each element gets its own timeout.

What is null in Java?

There are two major categories of types in Java: primitive and reference. Variables declared of a primitive type store values; variables declared of a reference type store references.

String x = null;

In this case, the initialization statement declares a variables “x”. “x” stores String reference. It is null here. First of all, null is not a valid object instance, so there is no memory allocated for it. It is simply a value that indicates that the object reference is not currently referring to an object.

How can I lock a file using java (if possible)

FileChannel.lock is probably what you want.

try (
    FileInputStream in = new FileInputStream(file);
    java.nio.channels.FileLock lock = in.getChannel().lock();
    Reader reader = new InputStreamReader(in, charset)
) {
    ...
}

(Disclaimer: Code not compiled and certainly not tested.)

Note the section entitled "platform dependencies" in the API doc for FileLock.

Proper way to make HTML nested list?

Have you thought about using the TAG "dt" instead of "ul" for nesting lists? It's inherit style and structure allow you to have a title per section and it automatically tabulates the content that goes inside.

<dl>
  <dt>Coffee</dt>
    <dd>Black hot drink</dd>
  <dt>Milk</dt>
    <dd>White cold drink</dd>
</dl>

VS

<ul>
   <li>Choice A</li>
   <li>Choice B
      <ul>
         <li>Sub 1</li>
         <li>Sub 2</li>
      </ul>

TypeError: 'function' object is not subscriptable - Python

It is so simple, you have 2 objects with the same name and when you say: bank_holiday[month] python thinks you wanna run your function and got ERROR.

Just rename your array to bank_holidays <--- add a 's' at the end! like this:

bank_holidays= [1, 0, 1, 1, 2, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 2] #gives the list of bank holidays in each month

def bank_holiday(month):
   if month <1 or month > 12:
       print("Error: Out of range")
       return
   print(bank_holidays[month-1],"holiday(s) in this month ")

bank_holiday(int(input("Which month would you like to check out: ")))

How can I remove specific rules from iptables?

Assume that, if you want to remove NAT rules,

List the appended IPtables using the command below,

# sudo iptables -L -t nat -v

Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT 18 packets, 1382 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination         
    7   420 DNAT       tcp  --  any    any     anywhere             saltmaster           tcp dpt:http to:172.31.5.207:80
    0     0 DNAT       tcp  --  eth0   any     anywhere             anywhere             tcp dpt:http to:172.31.5.207:8080

If you would like to remove the nat rule from the IPtables, just execute the command,

# sudo iptables -F -t nat -v

Flushing chain `PREROUTING'
Flushing chain `INPUT'
Flushing chain `OUTPUT'
Flushing chain `POSTROUTING'

Then, you can verify that,

# sudo iptables -L -t nat -v

How can I list all the deleted files in a Git repository?

If you're only interested in seeing the currently deleted files, you can use this:

git ls-files --deleted

if you then want to remove them (in case you deleted them not using "git rm") pipe that result to xargs git rm

git ls-files --deleted | xargs git rm

How to get size of mysql database?

Run this query and you'll probably get what you're looking for:

SELECT table_schema "DB Name",
        ROUND(SUM(data_length + index_length) / 1024 / 1024, 1) "DB Size in MB" 
FROM information_schema.tables 
GROUP BY table_schema; 

This query comes from the mysql forums, where there are more comprehensive instructions available.

Concat strings by & and + in VB.Net

Try this. It almost seemed to simple to be right. Simply convert the Integer to a string. Then you can use the method below or concatenate.

Dim I, J, K, L As Integer
Dim K1, L1 As String

K1 = K
L1 = L
Cells(2, 1) = K1 & " - uploaded"
Cells(3, 1) = L1 & " - expanded"

MsgBox "records uploaded " & K & " records expanded " & L

Change image source in code behind - Wpf

The pack syntax you are using here is for an image that is contained as a Resource within your application, not for a loose file in the file system.

You simply want to pass the actual path to the UriSource:

logo.UriSource = new Uri(@"\\myserver\folder1\Customer Data\sample.png");

Paused in debugger in chrome?

Another user mentioned this in slight detail but I missed it until I came back here about 3 times over 2 days -

There is a section titled EventListener breakpoints that contains a list of other breakpoints that can be set. It happens that I accidentally enabled one of them on DOM Mutation that was letting me know whenever anything to the DOM was overridden. Unfortunately this led to me disabling a bunch of plug-ins and add-ons before I realized it was just my machine. Hope this helps someone else.

Java to Jackson JSON serialization: Money fields

Inspired by Steve, and as the updates for Java 11. Here's how we did the BigDecimal reformatting to avoid scientific notation.

public class PriceSerializer extends JsonSerializer<BigDecimal> {
    @Override
    public void serialize(BigDecimal value, JsonGenerator jgen, SerializerProvider provider) throws IOException {
        // Using writNumber and removing toString make sure the output is number but not String.
        jgen.writeNumber(value.setScale(2, RoundingMode.HALF_UP));
    }
}

@font-face not working

Double period (..) means you go up one folder and then look for the folder behind the slash. For example:

If your index.html is in the folder html/files and the fonts are in html/fonts, the .. is fine (because you have to go back one folder to go to /fonts). Is your index.html in html and your fonts in html/fonts, then you should use only one period.

Another problem could be that your browser might not support .eot font-files.

Without seeing more of your code (and maybe a link to a live version of your website), I can't really help you further.

Edit: Forget the .eot part, I missed the .ttf file in your css.

Try the following:

@font-face { 
font-family: Gotham;
src: url(../fonts/gothammedium.eot);
src: url(../fonts/Gotham-Medium.ttf); 
}

startsWith() and endsWith() functions in PHP

Not sure why this is so difficult for people. Substr does a great job and is efficient as you don't need to search the whole string if it doesn't match.

Additionally, since I'm not checking integer values but comparing strings I don't have to necessarily have to worry about the strict === case. However, === is a good habit to get into.

function startsWith($haystack,$needle) {
  substring($haystack,0,strlen($needle)) == $needle) { return true; }
   return false;
}

function endsWith($haystack,$needle) {
  if(substring($haystack,-strlen($needle)) == $needle) { return true; }
   return false;
}

or even better optimized.

function startsWith($haystack,$needle) {
  return substring($haystack,0,strlen($needle)) == $needle);
}

function endsWith($haystack,$needle) {
  return substring($haystack,-strlen($needle)) == $needle);
}

UIImageView - How to get the file name of the image assigned?

Get image name Swift 4.2

There is a way if you want to compare button image names that you have in assets.

@IBOutlet weak var extraShotCheckbox: UIButton!

@IBAction func extraShotCheckBoxAction(_ sender: Any) {
    extraShotCheckbox.setImage(changeCheckBoxImage(button: extraShotCheckbox), for: .normal)
}

func changeCheckBoxImage(button: UIButton) -> UIImage {
    if let imageView = button.imageView, let image = imageView.image {
        if image == UIImage(named: "checkboxGrayOn") {
            return UIImage(named: "checkbox")!
        } else {
            return UIImage(named: "checkboxGrayOn")!
        }
    }
    return UIImage()
}

ConfigurationManager.RefreshSection(configManager.AppSettings.SectionInformation.Name);

Java 8 lambda get and remove element from list

Although the thread is quite old, still thought to provide solution - using Java8.

Make the use of removeIf function. Time complexity is O(n)

producersProcedureActive.removeIf(producer -> producer.getPod().equals(pod));

API reference: removeIf docs

Assumption: producersProcedureActive is a List

NOTE: With this approach you won't be able to get the hold of the deleted item.

How to add a button dynamically using jquery

Get loop count inside a Python FOR loop

Using zip function we can get both element and index.

countries = ['Pakistan','India','China','Russia','USA']

for index, element zip(range(0,countries),countries):

         print('Index : ',index)
         print(' Element : ', element,'\n')

output : Index : 0 Element : Pakistan ...

How do you format a Date/Time in TypeScript?

I had a similar problem and I solved with this

.format();

Java read file and store text in an array

int count = -1;
String[] content = new String[200];
while(inFile1.hasNext()){

    content[++count] = inFile1.nextLine();
}

EDIT

Looks like you want to create a float array, for that create a float array

int count = -1;
Float[] content = new Float[200];
while(inFile1.hasNext()){

    content[++count] = Float.parseFloat(inFile1.nextLine());
}

then your float array would look like

content[0] = 70.3
content[1] = 70.8
content[2] = 73.8
content[3] = 77.0 and so on

How to start Activity in adapter?

If you want to redirect on url instead of activity from your adapter class then pass context of with startactivity.

btnInstall.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                Intent intent=new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(link));
                intent.setData(Uri.parse(link));
                context.startActivity(intent);
            }
        });

Adding ASP.NET MVC5 Identity Authentication to an existing project

Configuring Identity to your existing project is not hard thing. You must install some NuGet package and do some small configuration.

First install these NuGet packages with Package Manager Console:

PM> Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.Owin 
PM> Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework
PM> Install-Package Microsoft.Owin.Host.SystemWeb 

Add a user class and with IdentityUser inheritance:

public class AppUser : IdentityUser
{
    //add your custom properties which have not included in IdentityUser before
    public string MyExtraProperty { get; set; }  
}

Do same thing for role:

public class AppRole : IdentityRole
{
    public AppRole() : base() { }
    public AppRole(string name) : base(name) { }
    // extra properties here 
}

Change your DbContext parent from DbContext to IdentityDbContext<AppUser> like this:

public class MyDbContext : IdentityDbContext<AppUser>
{
    // Other part of codes still same 
    // You don't need to add AppUser and AppRole 
    // since automatically added by inheriting form IdentityDbContext<AppUser>
}

If you use the same connection string and enabled migration, EF will create necessary tables for you.

Optionally, you could extend UserManager to add your desired configuration and customization:

public class AppUserManager : UserManager<AppUser>
{
    public AppUserManager(IUserStore<AppUser> store)
        : base(store)
    {
    }

    // this method is called by Owin therefore this is the best place to configure your User Manager
    public static AppUserManager Create(
        IdentityFactoryOptions<AppUserManager> options, IOwinContext context)
    {
        var manager = new AppUserManager(
            new UserStore<AppUser>(context.Get<MyDbContext>()));

        // optionally configure your manager
        // ...

        return manager;
    }
}

Since Identity is based on OWIN you need to configure OWIN too:

Add a class to App_Start folder (or anywhere else if you want). This class is used by OWIN. This will be your startup class.

namespace MyAppNamespace
{
    public class IdentityConfig
    {
        public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
        {
            app.CreatePerOwinContext(() => new MyDbContext());
            app.CreatePerOwinContext<AppUserManager>(AppUserManager.Create);
            app.CreatePerOwinContext<RoleManager<AppRole>>((options, context) =>
                new RoleManager<AppRole>(
                    new RoleStore<AppRole>(context.Get<MyDbContext>())));

            app.UseCookieAuthentication(new CookieAuthenticationOptions
            {
                AuthenticationType = DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie,
                LoginPath = new PathString("/Home/Login"),
            });
        }
    }
}

Almost done just add this line of code to your web.config file so OWIN could find your startup class.

<appSettings>
    <!-- other setting here -->
    <add key="owin:AppStartup" value="MyAppNamespace.IdentityConfig" />
</appSettings>

Now in entire project you could use Identity just like any new project had already installed by VS. Consider login action for example

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Login(LoginViewModel login)
{
    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        var userManager = HttpContext.GetOwinContext().GetUserManager<AppUserManager>();
        var authManager = HttpContext.GetOwinContext().Authentication;

        AppUser user = userManager.Find(login.UserName, login.Password);
        if (user != null)
        {
            var ident = userManager.CreateIdentity(user, 
                DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie);
            //use the instance that has been created. 
            authManager.SignIn(
                new AuthenticationProperties { IsPersistent = false }, ident);
            return Redirect(login.ReturnUrl ?? Url.Action("Index", "Home"));
        }
    }
    ModelState.AddModelError("", "Invalid username or password");
    return View(login);
}

You could make roles and add to your users:

public ActionResult CreateRole(string roleName)
{
    var roleManager=HttpContext.GetOwinContext().GetUserManager<RoleManager<AppRole>>();

    if (!roleManager.RoleExists(roleName))
        roleManager.Create(new AppRole(roleName));
    // rest of code
} 

You could also add a role to a user, like this:

UserManager.AddToRole(UserManager.FindByName("username").Id, "roleName");

By using Authorize you could guard your actions or controllers:

[Authorize]
public ActionResult MySecretAction() {}

or

[Authorize(Roles = "Admin")]]
public ActionResult MySecretAction() {}

You can also install additional packages and configure them to meet your requirement like Microsoft.Owin.Security.Facebook or whichever you want.

Note: Don't forget to add relevant namespaces to your files:

using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity;
using Microsoft.Owin.Security;
using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.Owin;
using Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework;
using Microsoft.Owin;
using Microsoft.Owin.Security.Cookies;
using Owin;

You could also see my other answers like this and this for advanced use of Identity.

HTTP URL Address Encoding in Java

I took the content above and changed it around a bit. I like positive logic first, and I thought a HashSet might give better performance than some other options, like searching through a String. Although, I'm not sure if the autoboxing penalty is worth it, but if the compiler optimizes for ASCII chars, then the cost of boxing will be low.

Can't push to remote branch, cannot be resolved to branch

For my case, I used to have branch folder (or whatever it is called) with capital letters, then I create a new one with difference casing (lowercase) but git actually create the branch with capital.

I have created a branch like feature-ABC/branch1 before and pushed it. Then I create a branch feature-abc/branch2 (notice the lower-case ABC), and try to push it to remote using git push --set-upstream origin feature-abc/branch2 and get the 'cannot be resolved to branch' error. So I git branch and see that it actually created feature-ABC/branch2 instead of feature-abc/branch1 for me. I checkout again with git checkout feature-ABC/feature2 and push it using the uppercase (feature-ABC/feature2) to solve it.

Replace all whitespace characters

You want \s

Matches a single white space character, including space, tab, form feed, line feed.

Equivalent to

[ \f\n\r\t\v\u00a0\u1680\u2000-\u200a\u2028\u2029\u202f\u205f\u3000\ufeff]

in Firefox and [ \f\n\r\t\v] in IE.

CSS blur on background image but not on content

jsfiddle

.blur-bgimage {
    overflow: hidden;
    margin: 0;
    text-align: left;
}
.blur-bgimage:before {
    content: "";
    position: absolute;
    width : 100%;
    height: 100%;
    background: inherit;
    z-index: -1;

    filter        : blur(10px);
    -moz-filter   : blur(10px);
    -webkit-filter: blur(10px);
    -o-filter     : blur(10px);

    transition        : all 2s linear;
    -moz-transition   : all 2s linear;
    -webkit-transition: all 2s linear;
    -o-transition     : all 2s linear;
}

You can blur the body background image by using the body's :before pseudo class to inherit the image and then blurring it. Wrap all that into a class and use javascript to add and remove the class to blur and unblur.

How do I get an object's unqualified (short) class name?

A good old regex seems to be faster than the most of the previous shown methods:

// both of the below calls will output: ShortClassName

echo preg_replace('/.*\\\\/', '', 'ShortClassName');
echo preg_replace('/.*\\\\/', '', 'SomeNamespace\SomePath\ShortClassName');

So this works even when you provide a short class name or a fully qualified (canonical) class name.

What the regex does is that it consumes all previous chars until the last separator is found (which is also consumed). So the remaining string will be the short class name.

If you want to use a different separator (eg. / ) then just use that separator instead. Remember to escape the backslash (ie. \) and also the pattern char (ie. /) in the input pattern.

How to remove all the null elements inside a generic list in one go?

The RemoveAll method should do the trick:

parameterList.RemoveAll(delegate (object o) { return o == null; });

min and max value of data type in C

Maximum value of any unsigned integral type:

  • ((t)~(t)0) // Generic expression that would work in almost all circumstances.

  • (~(t)0) // If you know your type t have equal or larger size than unsigned int. (This cast forces type promotion.)

  • ((t)~0U) // If you know your type t have smaller size than unsigned int. (This cast demotes type after the unsigned int-type expression ~0U is evaluated.)

Maximum value of any signed integral type:

  • If you have an unsigned variant of type t, ((t)(((unsigned t)~(unsigned t)0)>>1)) would give you the fastest result you need.

  • Otherwise, use this (thanks to @vinc17 for suggestion): (((1ULL<<(sizeof(t)*CHAR_BIT-2))-1)*2+1)

Minimum value of any signed integral type:

You have to know the signed number representation of your machine. Most machines use 2's complement, and so -(((1ULL<<(sizeof(t)*CHAR_BIT-2))-1)*2+1)-1 will work for you.

To detect whether your machine uses 2's complement, detect whether (~(t)0U) and (t)(-1) represent the same thing.

So, combined with above:

(-(((1ULL<<(sizeof(t)*CHAR_BIT-2))-1)*2+1)-(((~(t)0U)==(t)(-1)))

will give you the minimum value of any signed integral type.

As an example: Maximum value of size_t (a.k.a. the SIZE_MAX macro) can be defined as (~(size_t)0). Linux kernel source code define SIZE_MAX macro this way.

One caveat though: All of these expressions use either type casting or sizeof operator and so none of these would work in preprocessor conditionals (#if ... #elif ... #endif and like).

what exactly is device pixel ratio?

Short answer

The device pixel ratio is the ratio between physical pixels and logical pixels. For instance, the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S report a device pixel ratio of 2, because the physical linear resolution is double the logical linear resolution.

  • Physical resolution: 960 x 640
  • Logical resolution: 480 x 320

The formula is:

linres_p/linres_l

Where:

linres_p is the physical linear resolution

and:

linres_l is the logical linear resolution

Other devices report different device pixel ratios, including non-integer ones. For example, the Nokia Lumia 1020 reports 1.6667, the Samsumg Galaxy S4 reports 3, and the Apple iPhone 6 Plus reports 2.46 (source: dpilove). But this does not change anything in principle, as you should never design for any one specific device.

Discussion

The CSS "pixel" is not even defined as "one picture element on some screen", but rather as a non-linear angular measurement of 0.0213° viewing angle, which is approximately 1/96 of an inch at arm's length. Source: CSS Absolute Lengths

This has lots of implications when it comes to web design, such as preparing high-definition image resources and carefully applying different images at different device pixel ratios. You wouldn't want to force a low-end device to download a very high resolution image, only to downscale it locally. You also don't want high-end devices to upscale low resolution images for a blurry user experience.

If you are stuck with bitmap images, to accommodate for many different device pixel ratios, you should use CSS Media Queries to provide different sets of resources for different groups of devices. Combine this with nice tricks like background-size: cover or explicitly set the background-size to percentage values.

Example

#element { background-image: url('lores.png'); }

@media only screen and (min-device-pixel-ratio: 2) {
    #element { background-image: url('hires.png'); }
}

@media only screen and (min-device-pixel-ratio: 3) {
    #element { background-image: url('superhires.png'); }
}

This way, each device type only loads the correct image resource. Also keep in mind that the px unit in CSS always operates on logical pixels.

A case for vector graphics

As more and more device types appear, it gets trickier to provide all of them with adequate bitmap resources. In CSS, media queries is currently the only way, and in HTML5, the picture element lets you use different sources for different media queries, but the support is still not 100 % since most web developers still have to support IE11 for a while more (source: caniuse).

If you need crisp images for icons, line-art, design elements that are not photos, you need to start thinking about SVG, which scales beautifully to all resolutions.

jQuery xml error ' No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource.'

You won't be able to make an ajax call to http://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.xml from a file deployed at http://run.jsbin.com due to the same-origin policy.


As the source (aka origin) page and the target URL are at different domains (run.jsbin.com and www.ecb.europa.eu), your code is actually attempting to make a Cross-domain (CORS) request, not an ordinary GET.

In a few words, the same-origin policy says that browsers should only allow ajax calls to services at the same domain of the HTML page.


Example:

A page at http://www.example.com/myPage.html can only directly request services that are at http://www.example.com, like http://www.example.com/api/myService. If the service is hosted at another domain (say http://www.ok.com/api/myService), the browser won't make the call directly (as you'd expect). Instead, it will try to make a CORS request.

To put it shortly, to perform a (CORS) request* across different domains, your browser:

  • Will include an Origin header in the original request (with the page's domain as value) and perform it as usual; and then
  • Only if the server response to that request contains the adequate headers (Access-Control-Allow-Origin is one of them) allowing the CORS request, the browse will complete the call (almost** exactly the way it would if the HTML page was at the same domain).
    • If the expected headers don't come, the browser simply gives up (like it did to you).


* The above depicts the steps in a simple request, such as a regular GET with no fancy headers. If the request is not simple (like a POST with application/json as content type), the browser will hold it a moment, and, before fulfilling it, will first send an OPTIONS request to the target URL. Like above, it only will continue if the response to this OPTIONS request contains the CORS headers. This OPTIONS call is known as preflight request.
** I'm saying almost because there are other differences between regular calls and CORS calls. An important one is that some headers, even if present in the response, will not be picked up by the browser if they aren't included in the Access-Control-Expose-Headers header.


How to fix it?

Was it just a typo? Sometimes the JavaScript code has just a typo in the target domain. Have you checked? If the page is at www.example.com it will only make regular calls to www.example.com! Other URLs, such as api.example.com or even example.com or www.example.com:8080 are considered different domains by the browser! Yes, if the port is different, then it is a different domain!

Add the headers. The simplest way to enable CORS is by adding the necessary headers (as Access-Control-Allow-Origin) to the server's responses. (Each server/language has a way to do that - check some solutions here.)

Last resort: If you don't have server-side access to the service, you can also mirror it (through tools such as reverse proxies), and include all the necessary headers there.

Can vue-router open a link in a new tab?

In case that you define your route like the one asked in the question (path: '/link/to/page'):

import Vue from 'vue'
import Router from 'vue-router'
import MyComponent from '@/components/MyComponent.vue';

Vue.use(Router)

export default new Router({
  routes: [
    {
      path: '/link/to/page',
      component: MyComponent
    }
  ]
})

You can resolve the URL in your summary page and open your sub page as below:

<script>
export default {
  methods: {
    popup() {
      let route = this.$router.resolve({path: '/link/to/page'});
      // let route = this.$router.resolve('/link/to/page'); // This also works.
      window.open(route.href, '_blank');
    }
  }
};
</script>

Of course if you've given your route a name, you can resolve the URL by name:

routes: [
  {
    path: '/link/to/page',
    component: MyComponent,
    name: 'subPage'
  }
]

...

let route = this.$router.resolve({name: 'subPage'});

PageSpeed Insights 99/100 because of Google Analytics - How can I cache GA?

In the Google docs, they've identified a pagespeed filter that will load the script asynchronously:

ModPagespeedEnableFilters make_google_analytics_async

You can find the documentation here: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/module/filter-make-google-analytics-async

One thing to highlight is that the filter is considered high risk. From the docs:

The make_google_analytics_async filter is experimental and has not had extensive real-world testing. One case where a rewrite would cause errors is if the filter misses calls to Google Analytics methods that return values. If such methods are found, the rewrite is skipped. However, the disqualifying methods will be missed if they come before the load, are in attributes such as "onclick", or if they are in external resources. Those cases are expected to be rare.

What does it mean when the size of a VARCHAR2 in Oracle is declared as 1 byte?

it means ONLY one byte will be allocated per character - so if you're using multi-byte charsets, your 1 character won't fit

if you know you have to have at least room enough for 1 character, don't use the BYTE syntax unless you know exactly how much room you'll need to store that byte

when in doubt, use VARCHAR2(1 CHAR)

same thing answered here Difference between BYTE and CHAR in column datatypes

Also, in 12c the max for varchar2 is now 32k, not 4000. If you need more than that, use CLOB

in Oracle, don't use VARCHAR

Can I have an onclick effect in CSS?

Warning! Particularly simple answer below! :)

You actually can have a change that persists (such as a block/popup that appears and stays visible after a click) with only CSS (and without using the checkbox hack) despite what many of the (otherwise correct) answers here claim, as long as you only need persistence during the hover.

So take a look at Bojangles and TylerH's answers if those work for you, but if you want a simple and CSS only answer that will keep a block visible after being clicked on (and even can have the block disappear with a followup click), then see this solution.

I had a similar situation, I needed a popup div with onClick where I couldn't add any JS or change the markup/HTML (a truly CSS solution) and this is possible with some caveats. You can't use the :target trick that can create a nice popup unless you can change the HTML (to add an 'id') so that was out.

In my case the popup div was contained inside the other div, and I wanted the popup to appear on top of the other div, and this can be done using a combination of :active and :hover:

/* Outer div - needs to be relative so we can use absolute positioning */
.clickToShowInfo {
    position: relative;
}
/* When clicking outer div, make inner div visible */
.clickToShowInfo:active .info { display: block; }
/* And hold by staying visible on hover */
.info:hover {
    display: block;
}
/* General settings for popup */
.info {
    position: absolute;
    top: -5;
    display: none;
    z-index: 100;
    background-color: white;
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
}

Example (as well as one that allows clicking on the popup to make it disappear) at:

http://davesource.com/Solutions/20150324.CSS-Only-Click-to-Popup-Div/

How do you clear your Visual Studio cache on Windows Vista?

The accepted answer gave two locations:

here

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Temp\VWDWebCache

and possibly here

C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\WebsiteCache

Did you try those?

Edited to add

On my Windows Vista machine, it's located in

%Temp%\VWDWebCache

and in

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\WebsiteCache

From your additional information (regarding team edition) this comes from Clear Client TFS Cache:

Clear Client TFS Cache

Visual Studio and Team Explorer provide a caching mechanism which can get out of sync. If I have multiple instances of a single TFS which can be connected to from a single Visual Studio client, that client can become confused.

To solve it..

For Windows Vista delete contents of this folder

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\Team Foundation\1.0\Cache

Sublime Text 3, convert spaces to tabs

As you might already know, you can customize your indention settings in Preferences.sublime-settings, for example:

"detect_indentation": true,
"tab_size": 4,
"translate_tabs_to_spaces": false

This will set your editor to use tabs that are 4 spaces wide and will override the default behavior that causes Sublime to match the indention of whatever file you're editing. With these settings, re-indenting the file will cause any spaces to be replaced with tabs.

As far as automatically re-indenting when opening a file, that's not quite as easy (but probably isn't a great idea since whitespace changes wreak havoc on file diffs). What might be a better course of action: you can map a shortcut for re-indention and just trigger that when you open a new file that needs fixing.

Cell spacing in UICollectionView

Remember, it is minimum line space, not minimum inter item spacing or cell space. Because your collectionView's scroll direction is HORIZONTAL.

If it is vertical then you need to set cell space or inter item space for horizontal space between cells and line spacing for vertical space between cells.

Objective-C version

- (CGFloat)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView
                       layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout
    minimumLineSpacingForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
    {
        return 20;
    }

Swift version:

func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
    return 20

x or "default"

works best — i can even use a function call inline, without executing it twice or using extra variable:

self.lineEdit_path.setText( self.getDir(basepath) or basepath )

I use it when opening Qt's dialog.getExistingDirectory() and canceling, which returns empty string.

You could also add the external jar file to the project. Go to your project-->properties-->java build path-->libraries, add external JARS. Then add your downloaded jar file.

Difference between "on-heap" and "off-heap"

Not 100%; however, it sounds like the heap is an object or set of allocated space (on RAM) that is built into the functionality of the code either Java itself or more likely functionality from ehcache itself, and the off-heap Ram is there own system as well; however, it sounds like this is one magnitude slower as it is not as organized, meaning it may not use a heap (meaning one long set of space of ram), and instead uses different address spaces likely making it slightly less efficient.

Then of course the next tier lower is hard-drive space itself.

I don't use ehcache, so you may not want to trust me, but that what is what I gathered from their documentation.

conversion of a varchar data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range value

It's a date format issue. In Ireland the standard date format for the 28th of March would be "28-03-2011", whereas "03/28/2011" is the standard for the USA (among many others).

Get the index of a certain value in an array in PHP

Here is a function that will work for numeric or string indices. Pass the array as first parameter, then the index to the element that needs to be moved and finally set the direction to -1 to move the element up and to 1 to move it down. Example: Move(['first'=>'Peter','second'=>'Paul','third'=>'Kate'],'second',-1) will move Paul up and Peter down.

function Move($a,$element,$direction)
{

$temp = [];
$index = 0;

foreach($a as $key=>$value)
{
    $temp[$index++] = $key;
}

$index = array_search($element,$temp);

$newpos = $index+$direction;

if(isset($temp[$newpos]))
{
        $value2 = $temp[$newpos];
        $temp[$newpos]=$element;
        $temp[$index]=$value2;
}
else
{
    # move is not possible
    return $a; # returns the array unchanged
}   

$final = [];

foreach($temp as $next)
{
    $final[$next]=$a[$next];
}

return $final;

}

Getting multiple keys of specified value of a generic Dictionary?

revised: okay to have some kind of find you would need something other than dictionary, since if you think about it dictionary are one way keys. that is, the values might not be unique

that said it looks like you're using c#3.0 so you might not have to resort to looping and could use something like:

var key = (from k in yourDictionary where string.Compare(k.Value, "yourValue", true)  == 0 select k.Key).FirstOrDefault();

How to filter an array of objects based on values in an inner array with jq?

Very close! In your select expression, you have to use a pipe (|) before contains.

This filter produces the expected output.

. - map(select(.Names[] | contains ("data"))) | .[] .Id

The jq Cookbook has an example of the syntax.

Filter objects based on the contents of a key

E.g., I only want objects whose genre key contains "house".

$ json='[{"genre":"deep house"}, {"genre": "progressive house"}, {"genre": "dubstep"}]'
$ echo "$json" | jq -c '.[] | select(.genre | contains("house"))'
{"genre":"deep house"}
{"genre":"progressive house"}

Colin D asks how to preserve the JSON structure of the array, so that the final output is a single JSON array rather than a stream of JSON objects.

The simplest way is to wrap the whole expression in an array constructor:

$ echo "$json" | jq -c '[ .[] | select( .genre | contains("house")) ]'
[{"genre":"deep house"},{"genre":"progressive house"}]

You can also use the map function:

$ echo "$json" | jq -c 'map(select(.genre | contains("house")))'
[{"genre":"deep house"},{"genre":"progressive house"}]

map unpacks the input array, applies the filter to every element, and creates a new array. In other words, map(f) is equivalent to [.[]|f].

What is the difference between an int and a long in C++?

For the most part, the number of bytes and range of values is determined by the CPU's architecture not by C++. However, C++ sets minimum requirements, which litb explained properly and Martin York only made a few mistakes with.

The reason why you can't use int and long interchangeably is because they aren't always the same length. C was invented on a PDP-11 where a byte had 8 bits, int was two bytes and could be handled directly by hardware instructions. Since C programmers often needed four-byte arithmetic, long was invented and it was four bytes, handled by library functions. Other machines had different specifications. The C standard imposed some minimum requirements.

Aggregate a dataframe on a given column and display another column

A late answer, but and approach using data.table

library(data.table)
DT <- data.table(dat)

DT[, .SD[which.max(Score),], by = Group]

Or, if it is possible to have more than one equally highest score

DT[, .SD[which(Score == max(Score)),], by = Group]

Noting that (from ?data.table

.SD is a data.table containing the Subset of x's Data for each group, excluding the group column(s)

How to make a SIMPLE C++ Makefile

I suggest (note that the indent is a TAB):

tool: tool.o file1.o file2.o
    $(CXX) $(LDFLAGS) $^ $(LDLIBS) -o $@

or

LINK.o = $(CXX) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
tool: tool.o file1.o file2.o

The latter suggestion is slightly better since it reuses GNU Make implicit rules. However, in order to work, a source file must have the same name as the final executable (i.e.: tool.c and tool).

Notice, it is not necessary to declare sources. Intermediate object files are generated using implicit rule. Consequently, this Makefile work for C and C++ (and also for Fortran, etc...).

Also notice, by default, Makefile use $(CC) as the linker. $(CC) does not work for linking C++ object files. We modify LINK.o only because of that. If you want to compile C code, you don't have to force the LINK.o value.

Sure, you can also add your compilation flags with variable CFLAGS and add your libraries in LDLIBS. For example:

CFLAGS = -Wall
LDLIBS = -lm

One side note: if you have to use external libraries, I suggest to use pkg-config in order to correctly set CFLAGS and LDLIBS:

CFLAGS += $(shell pkg-config --cflags libssl)
LDLIBS += $(shell pkg-config --libs libssl)

The attentive reader will notice that this Makefile does not rebuild properly if one header is changed. Add these lines to fix the problem:

override CPPFLAGS += -MMD
include $(wildcard *.d)

-MMD allows to build .d files that contains Makefile fragments about headers dependencies. The second line just uses them.

For sure, a well written Makefile should also include clean and distclean rules:

clean:
    $(RM) *.o *.d

distclean: clean
    $(RM) tool

Notice, $(RM) is the equivalent of rm -f, but it is a good practice to not call rm directly.

The all rule is also appreciated. In order to work, it should be the first rule of your file:

all: tool

You may also add an install rule:

PREFIX = /usr/local
install:
    install -m 755 tool $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)/bin

DESTDIR is empty by default. The user can set it to install your program at an alternative system (mandatory for cross-compilation process). Package maintainers for multiple distribution may also change PREFIX in order to install your package in /usr.

One final word: Do not place source files in sub-directories. If you really want to do that, keep this Makefile in the root directory and use full paths to identify your files (i.e. subdir/file.o).

So to summarise, your full Makefile should look like:

LINK.o = $(CXX) $(LDFLAGS) $(TARGET_ARCH)
PREFIX = /usr/local
override CPPFLAGS += -MMD
include $(wildcard *.d)

all: tool
tool: tool.o file1.o file2.o
clean:
    $(RM) *.o *.d
distclean: clean
    $(RM) tool
install:
    install -m 755 tool $(DESTDIR)$(PREFIX)/bin

Is it possible to get multiple values from a subquery?

you can use cross apply:

select
    a.x,
    bb.y,
    bb.z
from
    a
    cross apply
    (   select b.y, b.z
        from b
        where b.v = a.v
    ) bb

If there will be no row from b to mach row from a then cross apply wont return row. If you need such a rows then use outer apply

If you need to find only one specific row for each of row from a, try:

    cross apply
    (   select top 1 b.y, b.z
        from b
        where b.v = a.v
        order by b.order
    ) bb

Programmatically add custom event in the iPhone Calendar

Remember to set the endDate to the created event, it is mandatory.

Otherwise it will fail (almost silently) with this error:

"Error Domain=EKErrorDomain Code=3 "No end date has been set." UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=No end date has been set.}"

The complete working code for me is:

EKEventStore *store = [EKEventStore new];
[store requestAccessToEntityType:EKEntityTypeEvent completion:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error) {
    if (!granted) { return; }
    EKEvent *calendarEvent = [EKEvent eventWithEventStore:store];
    calendarEvent.title = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"CEmprendedor: %@", _event.name];
    calendarEvent.startDate = _event.date;
    // 5 hours of duration, we must add the duration of the event to the API
    NSDate *endDate = [_event.date dateByAddingTimeInterval:60*60*5];
    calendarEvent.endDate = endDate;
    calendarEvent.calendar = [store defaultCalendarForNewEvents];
    NSError *err = nil;
    [store saveEvent:calendarEvent span:EKSpanThisEvent commit:YES error:&err];
    self.savedEventId = calendarEvent.eventIdentifier;  //saving the calendar event id to possibly deleted them
}];

SELECT * FROM in MySQLi

You can still use it (mysqli is just another way of communicating with the server, the SQL language itself is expanded, not changed). Prepared statements are safer, though - since you don't need to go through the trouble of properly escaping your values each time. You can leave them as they were, if you want to but the risk of sql piggybacking is reduced if you switch.

How to make div fixed after you scroll to that div?

I know this is tagged html/css only, but you can't do that with css only. Easiest way will be using some jQuery.

var fixmeTop = $('.fixme').offset().top;       // get initial position of the element

$(window).scroll(function() {                  // assign scroll event listener

    var currentScroll = $(window).scrollTop(); // get current position

    if (currentScroll >= fixmeTop) {           // apply position: fixed if you
        $('.fixme').css({                      // scroll to that element or below it
            position: 'fixed',
            top: '0',
            left: '0'
        });
    } else {                                   // apply position: static
        $('.fixme').css({                      // if you scroll above it
            position: 'static'
        });
    }

});

Are you wanting to keep old values and append? You're recreating the array each time, meaning that the old value gets clobbered.

Here's some updated code:

var myarray = [];
$("#test").click(function() {
    myarray.push($("#drop").val());
    alert(myarray);
});

How to get my activity context?

You can create a constructor using parameter Context of class A then you can use this context.

Context c;

A(Context context){ this.c=context }

From B activity you create a object of class A using this constructor and passing getApplicationContext().

Javascript sleep/delay/wait function

The behavior exact to the one specified by you is impossible in JS as implemented in current browsers. Sorry.

Well, you could in theory make a function with a loop where loop's end condition would be based on time, but this would hog your CPU, make browser unresponsive and would be extremely poor design. I refuse to even write an example for this ;)


Update: My answer got -1'd (unfairly), but I guess I could mention that in ES6 (which is not implemented in browsers yet, nor is it enabled in Node.js by default), it will be possible to write a asynchronous code in a synchronous fashion. You would need promises and generators for that.

You can use it today, for instance in Node.js with harmony flags, using Q.spawn(), see this blog post for example (last example there).

How to open a web server port on EC2 instance

Follow the steps that are described on this answer just instead of using the drop down, type the port (8787) in "port range" an then "Add rule".

Go to the "Network & Security" -> Security Group settings in the left hand navigation

Python for and if on one line

The reason it prints "three" is because you didnt define your array. The equivalent to what you're doing is:

arr = []
for i in array :
    if i == "two" :
        arr.push(i)
print(i)

You are asking for the last element it looked through, which is not what you should be doing. You need to be storing the array to a variable in order to get the element.

The english equivalent of what you are doing is:

You: "I need you to print all the elements in this array that equal two, but in an array. And each time you cycle through the list, define the current element as I."
Computer: "Here: ["two"]"
You: "Now tell me 'i'"
Computer: "'i' is equal to "three"
You: "Why?"

The reason 'i' is equal to "three" is because three was the last thing that was defined as I

the computer did:

i = "one"
i = "two"
i = "three"

print(["two"])

Because you asked it to.

If you want the index, go here If you want the values in an array, define the array, like this:

MyArray = [(i) for i in my_list if i=="two"]

HttpServletRequest to complete URL

You can write a simple one liner with a ternary and if you make use of the builder pattern of the StringBuffer from .getRequestURL():

private String getUrlWithQueryParms(final HttpServletRequest request) { 
    return request.getQueryString() == null ? request.getRequestURL().toString() :
        request.getRequestURL().append("?").append(request.getQueryString()).toString();
}

But that is just syntactic sugar.

Excel formula to get ranking position

You can use the RANK function in Excel without necessarily sorting the data. Type =RANK(C2,$C$2:$C$7). Excel will find the relative position of the data in C2 and display the answer. Copy the formula through to C7 by dragging the small node at the right end of the cell cursor.

How to properly exit a C# application?

This will work from anywhere, inside Form(), Form_Load(), or any event handler. I posted before, but I don't see it now?!?

public void exit(int exitCode)
{
    if (System.Windows.Forms.Application.MessageLoop)
    {
       // Use this since we are in a running Form
       System.Windows.Forms.Application.Exit();
       System.Environment.Exit(exitCode);
    }
    else
    {
       // Form ended or never .Run
       System.Environment.Exit(exitCode);
    }
} //* end exit()

How to connect android emulator to the internet

My platform: Mac OS 10.6.4 Eclipse: 3.6

I had a similar problem where my map app background was grey (no tiles) and the browser was unable to connect to the internet.

Within Eclipse I went to Run Configurations -> Target and added "-dns-server X.X.X.X" and everything worked fine afterwards. (obviously X.X.X.X was the IP address for my DNS server).

The breakpoint will not currently be hit. No symbols have been loaded for this document in a Silverlight application

Delete the .xap file if your breakpoint aren't being hit. Inside YourProject.Web/ClientBin Delete YourProject.xap. I've have tried all above and stumble across this fix, works everytime. Wise to clean the project after deleting as well.

How to print to console in pytest?

Short Answer

Use the -s option:

pytest -s

Detailed answer

From the docs:

During test execution any output sent to stdout and stderr is captured. If a test or a setup method fails its according captured output will usually be shown along with the failure traceback.

pytest has the option --capture=method in which method is per-test capturing method, and could be one of the following: fd, sys or no. pytest also has the option -s which is a shortcut for --capture=no, and this is the option that will allow you to see your print statements in the console.

pytest --capture=no     # show print statements in console
pytest -s               # equivalent to previous command

Setting capturing methods or disabling capturing

There are two ways in which pytest can perform capturing:

  1. file descriptor (FD) level capturing (default): All writes going to the operating system file descriptors 1 and 2 will be captured.

  2. sys level capturing: Only writes to Python files sys.stdout and sys.stderr will be captured. No capturing of writes to filedescriptors is performed.

pytest -s            # disable all capturing
pytest --capture=sys # replace sys.stdout/stderr with in-mem files
pytest --capture=fd  # also point filedescriptors 1 and 2 to temp file

How to overwrite files with Copy-Item in PowerShell

How to change string into QString?

I came across this question because I had a problem when following the answers, so I post my solution here.

The above examples all show samples with strings containing only ASCII values, in which case everything works fine. However, when dealing with strings in Windows whcih can also contain other characters, like german umlauts, then these solutions don't work

The only code that gives correct results in such cases is

std::string s = "Übernahme";
QString q = QString::fromLocal8Bit(s.c_str());

If you don't have to deal with such strings, then the above answers will work fine.

Float a div in top right corner without overlapping sibling header

Another problem solved by the rubber duck:

The css is right but you still have to remember that the HTML elements order matters: the div has to come before the header. http://jsfiddle.net/Fq2Na/1/ enter image description here

Change your HTML code to have the div before the header:

<section>
<div><button>button</button></div>
<h1>some long long long long header, a whole line, 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6</h1>
</section>

And keep your CSS to the simple div { float: right; }.

How to scale down a range of numbers with a known min and max value

I've taken Irritate's answer and refactored it so as to minimize the computational steps for subsequent computations by factoring it into the fewest constants. The motivation is to allow a scaler to be trained on one set of data, and then be run on new data (for an ML algo). In effect, it's much like SciKit's preprocessing MinMaxScaler for Python in usage.

Thus, x' = (b-a)(x-min)/(max-min) + a (where b!=a) becomes x' = x(b-a)/(max-min) + min(-b+a)/(max-min) + a which can be reduced to two constants in the form x' = x*Part1 + Part2.

Here's a C# implementation with two constructors: one to train, and one to reload a trained instance (e.g., to support persistence).

public class MinMaxColumnSpec
{
    /// <summary>
    /// To reduce repetitive computations, the min-max formula has been refactored so that the portions that remain constant are just computed once.
    /// This transforms the forumula from
    /// x' = (b-a)(x-min)/(max-min) + a
    /// into x' = x(b-a)/(max-min) + min(-b+a)/(max-min) + a
    /// which can be further factored into
    /// x' = x*Part1 + Part2
    /// </summary>
    public readonly double Part1, Part2;

    /// <summary>
    /// Use this ctor to train a new scaler.
    /// </summary>
    public MinMaxColumnSpec(double[] columnValues, int newMin = 0, int newMax = 1)
    {
        if (newMax <= newMin)
            throw new ArgumentOutOfRangeException("newMax", "newMax must be greater than newMin");

        var oldMax = columnValues.Max();
        var oldMin = columnValues.Min();

        Part1 = (newMax - newMin) / (oldMax - oldMin);
        Part2 = newMin + (oldMin * (newMin - newMax) / (oldMax - oldMin));
    }

    /// <summary>
    /// Use this ctor for previously-trained scalers with known constants.
    /// </summary>
    public MinMaxColumnSpec(double part1, double part2)
    {
        Part1 = part1;
        Part2 = part2;
    }

    public double Scale(double x) => (x * Part1) + Part2;
}

Download TS files from video stream

Copy and paste one of the .ts video files into a new tab in Chrome. Remove the identifying number of the .ts file (0,1,2,3 etc. or whatever number it is) and change the extension from ".ts" to ".mp4". That should bring up the video file in your browser as usual.

open read and close a file in 1 line of code

I think the most natural way for achieving this is to define a function.

def read(filename):
    f = open(filename, 'r')
    output = f.read()
    f.close()
    return output

Then you can do the following:

output = read('pagehead.section.htm')

"static const" vs "#define" vs "enum"

If you can get away with it, static const has a lot of advantages. It obeys the normal scope principles, is visible in a debugger, and generally obeys the rules that variables obey.

However, at least in the original C standard, it isn't actually a constant. If you use #define var 5, you can write int foo[var]; as a declaration, but you can't do that (except as a compiler extension" with static const int var = 5;. This is not the case in C++, where the static const version can be used anywhere the #define version can, and I believe this is also the case with C99.

However, never name a #define constant with a lowercase name. It will override any possible use of that name until the end of the translation unit. Macro constants should be in what is effectively their own namespace, which is traditionally all capital letters, perhaps with a prefix.

} );

CASE IN statement with multiple values

The question is specific to SQL Server, but I would like to extend Martin Smith's answer.

SQL:2003 standard allows to define multiple values for simple case expression:

SELECT CASE c.Number
          WHEN '1121231','31242323' THEN 1
          WHEN '234523','2342423' THEN 2
       END AS Test
FROM tblClient c;

It is optional feature: Comma-separated predicates in simple CASE expression“ (F263).

Syntax:

CASE <common operand>
     WHEN <expression>[, <expression> ...] THEN <result>
    [WHEN <expression>[, <expression> ...] THEN <result>
     ...]
    [ELSE <result>]
END

As for know I am not aware of any RDBMS that actually supports that syntax.

How can I loop through enum values for display in radio buttons?

Two options:

for (let item in MotifIntervention) {
    if (isNaN(Number(item))) {
        console.log(item);
    }
}

Or

Object.keys(MotifIntervention).filter(key => !isNaN(Number(MotifIntervention[key])));

(code in playground)


Edit

String enums look different than regular ones, for example:

enum MyEnum {
    A = "a",
    B = "b",
    C = "c"
}

Compiles into:

var MyEnum;
(function (MyEnum) {
    MyEnum["A"] = "a";
    MyEnum["B"] = "b";
    MyEnum["C"] = "c";
})(MyEnum || (MyEnum = {}));

Which just gives you this object:

{
    A: "a",
    B: "b",
    C: "c"
}

You can get all the keys (["A", "B", "C"]) like this:

Object.keys(MyEnum);

And the values (["a", "b", "c"]):

Object.keys(MyEnum).map(key => MyEnum[key])

Or using Object.values():

Object.values(MyEnum)

How can I do an asc and desc sort using underscore.js?

You can use .sortBy, it will always return an ascending list:

_.sortBy([2, 3, 1], function(num) {
    return num;
}); // [1, 2, 3]

But you can use the .reverse method to get it descending:

var array = _.sortBy([2, 3, 1], function(num) {
    return num;
});

console.log(array); // [1, 2, 3]
console.log(array.reverse()); // [3, 2, 1]

Or when dealing with numbers add a negative sign to the return to descend the list:

_.sortBy([-3, -2, 2, 3, 1, 0, -1], function(num) {
    return -num;
}); // [3, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3]

Under the hood .sortBy uses the built in .sort([handler]):

// Default is ascending:
[2, 3, 1].sort(); // [1, 2, 3]

// But can be descending if you provide a sort handler:
[2, 3, 1].sort(function(a, b) {
    // a = current item in array
    // b = next item in array
    return b - a;
});

Only allow specific characters in textbox

You need to subscribe to the KeyDown event on the text box. Then something like this:

private void textBox1_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs e)
{
    if (!char.IsControl(e.KeyChar) 
       && !char.IsDigit(e.KeyChar) 
       && e.KeyChar != '.' && e.KeyChar != '+' && e.KeyChar != '-'
       && e.KeyChar != '(' && e.KeyChar != ')' && e.KeyChar != '*' 
       && e.KeyChar != '/')
    {
        e.Handled = true;
        return;
    }
    e.Handled=false;
    return;
}

The important thing to know is that if you changed the Handled property to true, it will not process the keystroke. Setting it to false will.

Getting each individual digit from a whole integer

I've made this solution, it-s simple instead read an integer, i read a string (char array in C), then write with a for bucle, the code also write the sum of digits

// #include<string.h>

scanf("%s", n);
int total = 0;

for (int i = 0; i< strlen(n); i++){
    printf("%c", n[i]);
    total += (int)(n[i]) -48;
}

printf("%d", total);

How do I create a new user in a SQL Azure database?

How do I encode a JavaScript object as JSON?

All major browsers now include native JSON encoding/decoding.

// To encode an object (This produces a string)
var json_str = JSON.stringify(myobject); 

// To decode (This produces an object)
var obj = JSON.parse(json_str);

Note that only valid JSON data will be encoded. For example:

var obj = {'foo': 1, 'bar': (function (x) { return x; })}
JSON.stringify(obj) // --> "{\"foo\":1}"

Valid JSON types are: objects, strings, numbers, arrays, true, false, and null.

Some JSON resources:

MySQL - SELECT * INTO OUTFILE LOCAL ?

You can achieve what you want with the mysql console with the -s (--silent) option passed in.

It's probably a good idea to also pass in the -r (--raw) option so that special characters don't get escaped. You can use this to pipe queries like you're wanting.

mysql -u username -h hostname -p -s -r -e "select concat('this',' ','works')"

EDIT: Also, if you want to remove the column name from your output, just add another -s (mysql -ss -r etc.)

PostgreSQL: ERROR: operator does not exist: integer = character varying

I think it is telling you exactly what is wrong. You cannot compare an integer with a varchar. PostgreSQL is strict and does not do any magic typecasting for you. I'm guessing SQLServer does typecasting automagically (which is a bad thing).

If you want to compare these two different beasts, you will have to cast one to the other using the casting syntax ::.

Something along these lines:

create view view1
as 
select table1.col1,table2.col1,table3.col3
from table1 
inner join
table2 
inner join 
table3
on 
table1.col4::varchar = table2.col5
/* Here col4 of table1 is of "integer" type and col5 of table2 is of type "varchar" */
/* ERROR: operator does not exist: integer = character varying */
....;

Notice the varchar typecasting on the table1.col4.

Also note that typecasting might possibly render your index on that column unusable and has a performance penalty, which is pretty bad. An even better solution would be to see if you can permanently change one of the two column types to match the other one. Literately change your database design.

Or you could create a index on the casted values by using a custom, immutable function which casts the values on the column. But this too may prove suboptimal (but better than live casting).

How to create a drop shadow only on one side of an element?

You could also just do a gradient on the bottom - this was helpful for me because the shadow I wanted was on an element that was already semi-transparent, so I didn't have to worry about any clipping:

&:after {
      content:"";
      width:100%;
      height: 8px;
      position: absolute;
      bottom: -8px;
      left: 0;
      background: linear-gradient(to bottom, rgba(0,0,0,0.65) 0%,rgba(0,0,0,0) 100%);
    }

Just make the "bottom" and "height" properties match and set your rgba values to whatever you want them to be at the top / bottom of the shadow

Why doesn't importing java.util.* include Arrays and Lists?

I have just compile it and it compiles fine without the implicit import, probably you're seeing a stale cache or something of your IDE.

Have you tried compiling from the command line?

I have the exact same version:

here it is

Probably you're thinking the warning is an error.

UPDATE

It looks like you have a Arrays.class file in the directory where you're trying to compile ( probably created before ). That's why the explicit import solves the problem. Try copying your source code to a clean new directory and try again. You'll see there is no error this time. Or, clean up your working directory and remove the Arrays.class

How to use onClick event on react Link component?

I don't believe this is a good pattern to use in general. Link will run your onClick event and then navigate to the route, so there will be a slight delay navigating to the new route. A better strategy is to navigate to the new route with the 'to' prop as you have done, and in the new component's componentDidMount() function you can fire your hello function or any other function. It will give you the same result, but with a much smoother transition between routes.

For context, I noticed this while updating my redux store with an onClick event on Link like you have here, and it caused a ~.3 second blank-white-screen delay before mounting the new route's component. There was no api call involved, so I was surprised the delay was so big. However, if you're just console logging 'hello' the delay might not be noticeable.

Trimming text strings in SQL Server 2008

Regex for checking if a string is strictly alphanumeric

See the documentation of Pattern.

Assuming US-ASCII alphabet (a-z, A-Z), you could use \p{Alnum}.

A regex to check that a line contains only such characters is "^[\\p{Alnum}]*$".

That also matches empty string. To exclude empty string: "^[\\p{Alnum}]+$".

NodeJS: How to decode base64 encoded string back to binary?

As of Node.js v6.0.0 using the constructor method has been deprecated and the following method should instead be used to construct a new buffer from a base64 encoded string:

var b64string = /* whatever */;
var buf = Buffer.from(b64string, 'base64'); // Ta-da

For Node.js v5.11.1 and below

Construct a new Buffer and pass 'base64' as the second argument:

var b64string = /* whatever */;
var buf = new Buffer(b64string, 'base64'); // Ta-da

If you want to be clean, you can check whether from exists :

if (typeof Buffer.from === "function") {
    // Node 5.10+
    buf = Buffer.from(b64string, 'base64'); // Ta-da
} else {
    // older Node versions, now deprecated
    buf = new Buffer(b64string, 'base64'); // Ta-da
}

Calling filter returns <filter object at ... >

As of TypeScript 1.6, properties in object literals that do not have a corresponding property in the type they're being assigned to are flagged as errors.

Usually this error means you have a bug (typically a typo) in your code, or in the definition file. The right fix in this case would be to fix the typo. In the question, the property callbackOnLoactionHash is incorrect and should have been callbackOnLocationHash (note the mis-spelling of "Location").

This change also required some updates in definition files, so you should get the latest version of the .d.ts for any libraries you're using.

Example:

interface TextOptions {
    alignment?: string;
    color?: string;
    padding?: number;
}
function drawText(opts: TextOptions) { ... }
drawText({ align: 'center' }); // Error, no property 'align' in 'TextOptions'

But I meant to do that

There are a few cases where you may have intended to have extra properties in your object. Depending on what you're doing, there are several appropriate fixes

Type-checking only some properties

Sometimes you want to make sure a few things are present and of the correct type, but intend to have extra properties for whatever reason. Type assertions (<T>v or v as T) do not check for extra properties, so you can use them in place of a type annotation:

interface Options {
    x?: string;
    y?: number;
}

// Error, no property 'z' in 'Options'
let q1: Options = { x: 'foo', y: 32, z: 100 };
// OK
let q2 = { x: 'foo', y: 32, z: 100 } as Options;
// Still an error (good):
let q3 = { x: 100, y: 32, z: 100 } as Options;

These properties and maybe more

Some APIs take an object and dynamically iterate over its keys, but have 'special' keys that need to be of a certain type. Adding a string indexer to the type will disable extra property checking

Before

interface Model {
  name: string;
}
function createModel(x: Model) { ... }

// Error
createModel({name: 'hello', length: 100});

After

interface Model {
  name: string;
  [others: string]: any;
}
function createModel(x: Model) { ... }

// OK
createModel({name: 'hello', length: 100});

This is a dog or a cat or a horse, not sure yet

interface Animal { move; }
interface Dog extends Animal { woof; }
interface Cat extends Animal { meow; }
interface Horse extends Animal { neigh; }

let x: Animal;
if(...) {
  x = { move: 'doggy paddle', woof: 'bark' };
} else if(...) {
  x = { move: 'catwalk', meow: 'mrar' };
} else {
  x = { move: 'gallop', neigh: 'wilbur' };
}

Two good solutions come to mind here

Specify a closed set for x

// Removes all errors
let x: Dog|Cat|Horse;

or Type assert each thing

// For each initialization
  x = { move: 'doggy paddle', woof: 'bark' } as Dog;

This type is sometimes open and sometimes not

A clean solution to the "data model" problem using intersection types:

interface DataModelOptions {
  name?: string;
  id?: number;
}
interface UserProperties {
  [key: string]: any;
}
function createDataModel(model: DataModelOptions & UserProperties) {
 /* ... */
}
// findDataModel can only look up by name or id
function findDataModel(model: DataModelOptions) {
 /* ... */
}
// OK
createDataModel({name: 'my model', favoriteAnimal: 'cat' });
// Error, 'ID' is not correct (should be 'id')
findDataModel({ ID: 32 });

How to pass a variable from Activity to Fragment, and pass it back?

Sending data from Activity into Fragments linked by XML

If you create a fragment in Android Studio using one of the templates e.g. File > New > Fragment > Fragment (List), then the fragment is linked via XML. The newInstance method is created in the fragment but is never called so can't be used to pass arguments.

Instead in the Activity override the method onAttachFragment

@Override
public void onAttachFragment(Fragment fragment) {
    if (fragment instanceof DetailsFragment) {
        Bundle args = new Bundle();
        args.putInt("index", index);
        f.setArguments(args);        
     }
}

Then read the arguments in the fragment onCreate method as per the other answers

Why is AJAX returning HTTP status code 0?

In my case, I was getting this but only on Safari Mobile. The problem is that I was using the full URL (http://example.com/whatever.php) instead of the relative one (whatever.php). This doesn't make any sense though, it can't be a XSS issue because my site is hosted at http://example.com. I guess Safari looks at the http part and automatically flags it as an insecure request without inspecting the rest of the URL.

How do I increase the cell width of the Jupyter/ipython notebook in my browser?

You can set the CSS of a notebook by calling a stylesheet from any cell. As an example, take a look at the 12 Steps to Navier Stokes course.

In particular, creating a file containing

<style>
    div.cell{
        width:100%;
        margin-left:1%;
        margin-right:auto;
    }
</style>

should give you a starting point. However, it may be necessary to also adjust e.g div.text_cell_render to deal with markdown as well as code cells.

If that file is custom.css then add a cell containing:

from IPython.core.display import HTML
def css_styling():
    styles = open("custom.css", "r").read()
    return HTML(styles)
css_styling()

This will apply all the stylings, and, in particular, change the cell width.

Program to find largest and second largest number in array

The question is ambiguous: if the array may contain duplicate values, are you supposed to find the 2 largest distinct values or the two largest possibly identical values?

Your code seems to indicate you want the first approach, but you have a problem if the largest value is a[0]. You should use an extra boolean to keep track of whether you have found a different value yet.

You should also test the return value of the different scanf() calls and return 0 from main().

Here is a modified version:

#include <stdio.h>

int main(void) {
    int a[10], n, i;
    int largest1, largest2, has_largest2;

    printf("enter number of elements you want in array: ");
    if (scanf("%d", &n) != 1)
        return 1;
    if (n < 2) {
        printf("need at least 2 elements\n");
        return 1;
    }
    printf("enter elements: ");
    for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        if (scanf("%d", &a[i]) != 1) {
            printf("input error\n");
            return 1;
        }
    }
    largest1 = a[0];
    for (i = 1; i < n; i++) {
        if (a[i] > largest1) {
            largest1 = a[i];
        }
    }
    has_largest2 = largest2 = 0;
    for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        if (a[i] < largest1) {
            if (!has_largest2) {
                has_largest2 = 1;
                largest2 = a[i];
            } else
            if (a[i] > largest2) {
                largest2 = a[i];
            }
        }
    }
    if (has_largest2) {
        printf("First and second largest number is %d and %d\n",
               largest1, largest2);
    } else {
        printf("All values are identical to %d\n", largest1);
    }
    return 0;
}

Casting string to enum

As an extra, you can take the Enum.Parse answers already provided and put them in an easy-to-use static method in a helper class.

public static T ParseEnum<T>(string value)
{
    return (T)Enum.Parse(typeof(T), value, ignoreCase: true);
}

And use it like so:

{
   Content = ParseEnum<ContentEnum>(fileContentMessage);
};

Especially helpful if you have lots of (different) Enums to parse.
